JOHN GUTTAG: Computational devices have become so pervasive that most of the time we don’t even realize that we’re using them. Computation keeps our planes in the air and our cars on the road. It manages our electrical, communications, and financial systems. It controls everything from homes to pacemakers. And most importantly, computation has changed

This episode is brought to you by CuriosityStream. Hi, I’m Carrie Anne and welcome to CrashCourse Computer Science! So far, for most of this series, we’ve focused on hardware — the physical components of computing — things like: electricity and circuits, registers and RAM, ALUs and CPUs. But programming at the hardware level is cumbersome

[Evans] This is definitely a subjective question, and it’s kind of strange that a discipline like computer science is so poorly defined that if you ask many computer scientists what it is you’ll get very different answers. But my answer to this is it is engineering, it is a science, and it’s also a liberal

So this is the first input to web application, and the first entry in this tuple is what’s known as the regular expression. Now what a regular expression is, is a compact way to describe a set of strings. And computer scientists often talk about sets of strings as being a language. This is a

Hi my name is Mia Gil-Epner, I’m majoring in Computer Science at UC Berkeley and I work for the Department of Defense, where I try to keep information safe. The Internet is an open and public system. We all send and receive information over shared wires and connections. But even though it’s an open system,

I said we didn’t need any new constructs, but we are gonna introduce one and that’s gonna make writing the code we need for a search engine much more convenient It’s also gonna be very useful for lots and lots of procedures that we wanna write and the construct we are gonna introduce is called

So I really love computer science because it’s a great mix of working with fantastic people and combining technical and creative skills. I’ve always been a huge gamer, I love playing games and the social interactions you have with games and it wasn’t I met game developers in person that I realised how passionate and
